The Teacher- Moral Influences employed in the
instruction and government of the oung, by
Jacob Abbot.
The above is the title of a neat volume, with en
gravings, just issued by llarpkb & Brothers, and
for sale by M. G. McKinxk. The preface states
that- ....
“ This book is intended to detail, in a familiar
and practical manner, a system of arrangements
for the organization and management of a school
based on the employment, so far as is practicable,
of J hral Influences as a means of effecting the ob
jects in view.”
The Lane Challenge.
We published, as we received it, the telegraph
statement of the rumored intention of Col. Jas. H.
Lane to challenge the Hon. S. A. Douglas, as well
as the suspension of the challenge for the purpose
of explanation, Ac. We regarded the report as
premature, even if Col. Lane seriously intended to
adopt such a course, for he could hardly have been
serious in that matter, and permitted it to reach
the ears of telegraph operators or news reporters.
We now regard the whole story as the fabulous
concoction of some expert news manufacturer.

W e received the following letter yesterday from
a responsible source iu Sparta, and publish it us i
matter of justice to the parties concerned :
Sparta, Ga., April 22, 1856.
Jas. Gardner, Esq.— Dear Sir: 1 Lake the libci
tv to drop you a few lines to correct a statement ni
the " Affair in Sparta,” as you please to call i.,
wtiich is wholly incorrect, and calculated to mis
lead and prejudice the public feeling against a
person innocent of any such crime as alleged bv
your iulormant. John H. Sanders, Ksq., the per
son alluded to in your paper of lyth inst., is :•
quiet, unoffending citizen, and is in the employ of
Messrs. Skrinf. A Poweli., as a wheelwright and
carriage maker, and knew nothing of the affair
until hearing the cry of murder, from the shop ol
the Messrs. Gardners, something like a hundred
yards, diagonally across the street from the shop
of Messrs. Shrine A Powell, when Messrs. Skri.m
and Sanders entered the shop of the Messrs. Gard
ners’ they tound O. J. Poweli., Esq., on the floor,
his f*c* very bloody, having been knocked down
aud 11. B. and B. U. Gardner on him. Thi~ was
the position of the parties, as testified to by Mr.
Serine, on the trial for commitment. ~Vo evidence
showing u premeditation of hostility on either
party tvas introduced, and 1 have no thought that
there was any, as the parties met according to ap
pointment to transact some business. No weapon
was drawn until Powell was knocked down tin
second time, with a piece of timber, by B. K.
Gardner, after the separation, of the parties I>\
Serine and Sanders.
O. J. Powell, Esq., was held to hail in the sum
of *2so(i, to appear at the next term of our Supe
rior Court.
Knowing your disposition to do justice to all
parties, I give von these facts for that purpose.

The Concord of Sweet Sounds.
V* e hud the following decidedly good story in
the Paris correspondence of the New York Repress.
It will be appreciated by musical gentlemen with
weak nerves;
The sleeping apartments of two gentlemen In -
longing to different grades of the upper classes,
joined each other. M. de V passed his nights
in amusing himself at his club, and came home to
go to bed at live o'clock in the morning. M. de 1’
his neighbor, rose at six o’clock, and, being
an enthusiastic lover of music, commenced “prac
ticing at the piano. This arrangement not. being
precisely agreeable to M. de V——, that worthy
entreated Ins neighbor to restrain his enthusiasm
until four or five hours later in the day. M. de P
cooly responded that his enthusiasm was of
the nature of the “noon-gun” in the garden ot
the Palais Royal,-and was “hound to go off" at
the regular hour. The nocturnal gentleman ap
pealed to a neighboring Commissary ot police,
lie was laughed at for ins pains, and advisee! to go
to bed at a reasonable hour. Me had a lease lor
six years ; he tried to rent also the apartments of
the musician, but found that lie, too, had agreed
with the landlord for a term of six years. That
plan was, therefore, indefensible. Should lie send
the musician a challenge* Upon inquiry he learn
ed that the object of his resentment was an inva
lid and never quitted his room. As a Sort of der
nier resort M. de V caused his walls to be
lined with thick naatrasses ; but this did not ex
clude the horrible matinal music. M. de V
concluded to commence the aggressive. He bought
an enormous cor de chaw and made his servant
keep up a tearlul din throughout the night. M do
P , the piano man, cited his neighbor before a
magistrate and caused him to be lined for a mis
demeanor —blowing the French Horn for amuse
ment being only permitted during the last days of
the Carnival. M. de V bought a hammer and
pounded with all his might upon the wall. M. do
P waited until he and the servant were both
exhausted with their exertions, and then re-com
menced his piano. All this time M. de V
could get no sleep at all. The hammer wouldn't
do—that was clear. The noise couldn’t ke kept
up long enough. He must invent something that
would be lasting and incessant in its din. Tile
piano must be forced to capitulate. A hand organ
passed one day under M. de V ’s window. He
,n 'be propriet r, a Savoyard, and pur
chased .lie ms rument. It was an organ which had
been frozen during its passage across the .tips, and
had never since been turned. M. de V

without being wound up but once, and "adapted

The Jfitvassee Railroad Veto, and the
proceedings of the Towns county meet
ing.
In compliance with the request of the meeting,
we publish the proceedings in Towns county on
the Executive veto of the Hiwassee railroad bill.
In doing so, however, we must emphatically de
clare our dissent to the harsh terms of censure ap
plied to Governor Johnson, and the unjust asper
sions of his motives. Georgia has never had in
the Executive Chair a more able, upright, aud
patriotic Governor than llerschel V. Johnson.
While we adhere to the opinion that the people of
Towns, Union, and Fannin counties should have
been allowed to build their road, and that the Ex
ecutive veto should not have been interposed to
defeat the will of the Legislature, we not only con
cede, but as a friend and admirer of Gov. Johnson,
insist that he interposed his veto from a high and
controlling sense of duty. We know that he did so
reluctantly, being deeply impressed with the re
sponsibility the occasion imposed upon him, and
not until he had given the whole subject the most
deliberate reflection. Indeed, his veto message
shows, by its ability, that his fine'intellect was
roused up to its full power in investigating the
subject in all its bearings. If his reasoning is in
conclusive, and based on false premises, a future
Legislature can repair the error, and its voice,
when again deliberately spoken,* will doubtless
control the question. The result then will only be
delay, not defeat, to the enterprise. Where public
sentiment seemed so nearly equally divided on this
question, and where there seemed so many grave
conflicts of interest, it may not be so unjust as the
friends of the Hiwassee road consider it, that it
should be referred back to the people. Truth and
justice must ultimately prevail before that tri
bunal.
We respectfully suggest to the people of Union
and Towns counties that intemperate denunciations
of Gov. Johnson, and of his motives, will not
strengthen their cause, but may have the opposite
effect. The people have au abiding confidence in
the integrity and conscientiousness ofGov. .1 oiinson,
and if an issue is tendered to them on these points
they will sustain him, even though to vindicate
him it became necessary to defeat an enterprise
which sought a triumph at the expense of his good
name aud popularity.
The disclosure of Doct. Young of liis conversa
tion with Gov. Johnson, accounts for the severity
of the strictures indulged i.i by the Union and
Towns county meetings, and may extenuate tin
temper which prompted their expression. Hut
that conversation does not fix duplicity on the
Governor, nor justify reproach. It required but a
little charity, it required but the exorcise of a mag
nanimous liberality to concede that the subsequen
reflections of the Governor in investigating tin
subject, brought his mind to the conviction that
his first impressions in favor of the charter wen
wrong—that while his sympathies and good wish
es were with the people who desired the road, hi
•ould not indulge them at what he became con
vinced would be at the sacrifice of other interests,
lie felt bound by his position ro protect. To hav
him go against his deliberate convictions of dull
in order to be consistent with his first impressions
we are sure no conscientious man would demand
N’or could a conscientious Chief Magistrate do this.
We take this occasion to say that we shouh
have accompanied our publication of the pream
ble and resolutions of the Union county meeting
with similar comments, had we read them as care
fully before publishing, as we did afterwards. Bu
we gave the manuscript a very cursory glance, am.
confess to have done it so hurriedly as not to hav.
been impressed at the time, as we have been since,
with the extent of the injustice they do to Gov.
Johnson. We are glad an opportunity again oilers
for us to express our regrets that his motives should
be assailed, at the same time that we deprecate tin
veto.

The Old Line Whigs, as such cannot consisient
i- unite with any other existing party. They can

furthermore, that, party has systematically intro
duced the alarming practice of subordinating the
Judiciary to political and party influence and con

Improve tin l City.
\fr. Editor —While our citizens are manifesting
such laudable zeal for the prosperity of Augusta,
by the encouragement of internal improvements
calculated to bring produce to this market, would
it not he well also to do something to make a resi
dence here more desirable than it is under existing
circumstances? During the winter months, our
Streets are so miery as to become almost impassa
ble for man or beast; and in summer the clouds of
dust render the city so intolerable IliM all leave it
who can possibly do so. And yet we have at hand
every facility for making Augusta one of the most
agreeable places in the Union, at a comparatively
trilling expense. Being confessedly one of the
healthiest cities in the country, it needs no argu
ment to prove that if we can make it a cwnt'ortatJe
place of residence at all seasons, its population
must be increased, and the character of its private
dwellings improved. Many who now take refuge
into the country, would remain and purchase large
lots upon our Beautiful non-commercial streets, for
the erection of commodious and ornamental man
sions, where they might enjoy the Combined ad
vantages of a city and rural life.
All this may he done bv carrying out the judi
cious recommendation made by the late Mayor, in
his last message to Council, with regard to macad
amizing the streets, and by introducing a free sup
ply of water from the Canal for watering them.
There scents to be no good reason why such im
portant improvements should be any longer de
ferred. Augusta.

[ COMMUNICATED, j
Public Meeting in Towns County.
Lnu>n County l'rtaiiwlt and Jlesolutions Adopted.
A large proportion of the citizens of Towns
county assembled on Tuesday, the Bth inst., for
the purpose of expressing their unqualified disap
probation of that act of executive tyranny and
despotism, which deprived them of the Hiwassee
railroad charter, and doomed them to commercial
isolation and seclusion.
The meeting was organized by calling Rev.
John Oark to the (.'hair, and requesting M. L. j
Birch to act as Secretary.
Dr. A. Young then moved that a committee of j
thirteen be appointed to report matter for the con- ;
sideration of the meeting. In pursuance of which
motion, the Chair announced the following gentle
men. viz: Messrs. A. Young, James Cathey, L.
H. Kerbv, E. Kinsey, J. Carter, R. A. Brown, J.
Bryson,'.). W. Holmes, W. Wilson, A. jCarr, M.
G. Morgan, J. Russel, and John Llovd ; who re
tired and after an absence of thirty minutes, re
turned, recommeding to the consideration of the
meeting the preamble and resolutions adopted bv
the citizens of Union county, on the 17th ultimo.
Pending the motion for their adoption, Dr.
Young addressed the Chair, stating that it was
due the meeting that he should say the preamble
and resolutions had been denounced by certain
Georgia papers as reflecting too hotly on the mo
tives and statemanship of the Executive —as
containing an implied charge of demagogueism us
being a string of billingsgate and vitupera
tion. He then went into an elaborate and elo
quent vindication of the preamble and resolutions
-stated that if they did contain an implied charge
of deinngogueism, he would state the substance of
a conversation that occurred between himself aud
his Excellency, at the session of the Legislature
immediately preceding the last, and leave it to the
discretion of his audience and the public, to de
termine whether or not he is obnoxious to the
charge. The conversation and the circumstances
under which it occurred, are as follows : In the
evening of the day that the tax bill was defeated,
he (the Doctor) and his Excellency met in the
street, and after the usual formalities, his Excel
lency expressed .much regret at the defeat of the
tax bill, particularly as it was the last of a series of
bills reported and lost, and the final defeat of that
bill would stop the machinery of Government, and
force him to call the General Assembly together
every sixty davs, until a bill should be passed,
which would raise a sufficient revenue for the po
litical years contemplated by the bill, and express
ed a desire that he would make an effort the next
morning for its re-consideration and passage, lie
the Doctor ) replied that neither himself nor his
constituents were solicitous as to the fate of the tax
bill; that he, and those that he represented, were
opposed to the ad valor urn system of taxation ;
that that system bad been and was then being at
tempted to be forced upon the State by city cou
entrnted capital, and corporation influence : that
best same influences were arrayed in formidable
ipposition to a measure of great commercial irn
lortance to his constituents, his Excellency asked
“to what measure lie alluded.” lie replied, to the
Hiwassee Railroad Bill. His Excellency then wish
d to know where the contemplated road would be
gin, and where ii would terminate. To which the
ioctor replied, that it would commence at or near
lavton, pass through the counties of Rabun and
Union, and terminate at or near Duck Town, Ten
nessee. His Excellency then expressed himself as
icing decided!// in fa vor of the measure, and as not
■ting able to comprehend why an >/ section of the State
hou/d place itself in opposition to the enterprise.
Now, Mr. Chairman, continued the Doctor, his
Excellency thus unequivocably expressed himself
vhen informed that the contemplated roa would
unmenee at Clayton and terminate at Die. . i "n.
'he bill introduced by Col. Smith did nuts icit
i'her of these points as a beginning or tern nu>,
et his Excellency vetoes the. bill from the men
pprehension that, the road would make the sum
•u.ntction distinctly specified in the original bill,
if which he so emphatically declared hiins, If in
avor; thus violating the implied pledge of K.*
cutive sanction in the event the bill,passed. It,
ontinued he, Executive srnction to the original
rill would have been compatible with public duty,
hen Executive sanction to ibis bill, introduced bv
lis esteemed friend. Col. Smith, could not have
een incompatible with the same. He would leave
it to those more skilled in Executive diplomacy,
vhether or not his Excellency has redeemed his
implied pledges; and to his audience, to mani
fest by their adoption or rejection of the preamble
aid resolutions, whether or not the alleged ira
ilied reflections on his Excellency were well
founded or otherwise. He then proceeded to
a review of the first part of the veto message,
which lie did with his usual eloquence aud ability.
Whilst we have not the ability to transmit to
paper the logical arguments, the soul-stirring ap
peals. nor follow him in his lofty flights of elo
quence, we may be permitted to sav that his posi
tion, his arguments, his eloquence, have left a last
ing impression upon the aroused hearts and con
vinced judgments of our citizens.
Col. Smith then arose and stated that the great
principles, free trade and equal rights, contained
in the preamble anil resolutions had been so ably
and triumphantly vindicated by the able (’hair
man of the Committee (l)r. Young i, that he deem
ed it superfluous to say more in relation to them.
They met with his hearty concurrence and warm
approbation. He then took up the veto message,
aud many a mortal blow did his descending bat
tle axe deal upon that, boasted State paper. One
argument after another was attacked and over
thrown—-“weighed in the balances and found
wanting," until his Excellency's magnificent sys
tem of internal improvement, tottering, fell be
neath the argumentative zeal and convincing elo
quence of Col. Smith, burying itself in its own
ruins, amid die thunders of applause which greeted
the Colonel as he took his seat.
The motion for the adoption of the resolutions
was then submitted to, and unanimously adopted
by the meeting. Much enthusiasm prevailed.
On motion of Col. J. W. Holmes, the same pa
pers enumerated in the Union county resolutions
were requested to publish the proceedings of this
meeting. The meeting then adjourned.

Walker vxn the Costa Ricans.- A Washing
ton letter says: Further intelligence from Nica
ragua does not serve to show that Walker has,
as yet, met with any serious check. With
twenty five hundred men and a prospect of
booty in Costa Rica, be can sustain himself,
and even extend his dominion. We have no
positive confirmation of the various surmises
that foreign governments were to interpose in
opposition to him. Some years ago it was
thought and alleged that Costa Rica was under
British protection, and that a secret treaty to
that end has been made with her by Mr. Chat
field, the British agent. If there is any truth in
it, we shall soon know it. But it is to be re
marked, that in the manifestoes of the Costa Rican
government, there is no allusion to an expects
tation or promise of foreign aid, and tin appeal
for assistance, except to Central American States.

I Diseases ot the lover. When the
celebrated Dr. Rush declared that drunkenness was
a disease, he enunciated a truth which the experi
ence aud observation of medical men is every day
confirming. The many apparently insane excesses
of those who indulge in the use of spirituous liquors,
may be thus accounted for. The true cause of con
duct, which is taken for infatuation, is very fre
quently a diseased state of the Liver. No organ in
the human system, when deranged, produces a
more frightful catalogue of diseases. And if, in
stead of applying remedies to the manifestations of
disease, as is too often the case, physicians would
prescribe with a view to the original cause, fewer
deaths would result from diseases induced by a de
ranged state of the Liver. Three-fourths of the dis
eases enumerated under the head of Consumption,

ZW A Perfumed Breath.—What Lady
or Gentleman would remain under the curse of a
disagreeable breath when, by using the “BALM
‘H A THOUSAND FLOWERS” as a ilentrifice,
would not only render it sweet, but leave the teeth
"’bite as alabaster? Many persons do not know
heir breath is bad, and the subject is so delicate
heir friends will never mention it. Pour a single
drop of the “Balm” on your tooth-brush, and
wash the teeth night and morning. A fifty cent,
bottle will last a year.
A Beactiftl Complexion may easily be acquired
by using the “ Balm of a Thousand Flowers.” It
will remove tan, pimples and freckles from the skin,
leaving it of a soft and roseate hue. Wet a towel,
pour on two or three drops, and wash the face night
